The book follows the lives of Daisy Jones and The Six, a fictional rock band that was everywhere in the late 70s. Their albums were on every turntable, they sold out arenas from coast to coast, their sound defined an era. And then, on 12 July 1979, they split. Nobody ever knew why. Until now.
The book is written as an oral history, based on interviews with the band members and other people who knew them. It reveals their secrets, their struggles, their passions, and their conflicts. It shows how they came together, how they made music, how they loved and hated each other, how they broke apart.
Daisy Jones is a beautiful and talented singer-songwriter who dreams of becoming a star. She has a wild and rebellious spirit, a magnetic charisma, and a voice that can make anyone fall in love with her. She joins The Six, a rock band led by Billy Dunne, a charismatic and talented singer-guitarist who struggles with addiction and fidelity. They have an intense chemistry, both on and off stage, but they also have a complicated relationship that threatens to destroy them and the band.
The Six are composed of Graham Dunne, Billy's loyal brother and bassist; Eddie Loving, the hot-headed guitarist who resents Billy's leadership; Warren Rhodes, the laid-back drummer who loves to party; Karen Sirko, the keyboardist who has a secret crush on Graham; and Pete Loving, Eddie's brother and rhythm guitarist who just wants to go home to his girlfriend. They are all talented musicians who have their own stories, opinions, and ambitions.
